Engineering Mechanics
This course introduces the fundamental principles of mechanics, essential for all branches of engineering. It covers the study of forces, motion, and the physical behavior of solid bodies under external influences. The course aims to provide students with a solid foundation in understanding how objects behave under different conditions and how to analyze these behaviors for practical engineering applications.

Key Topics Covered:

• Statics: Study of bodies at rest, equilibrium of forces, and the analysis of structures.

• Dynamics: Understanding the motion of bodies under the influence of forces, including concepts of velocity, acceleration, and energy.

• Kinematics: The description of motion without considering forces, including displacement, velocity, and acceleration.

• Strength of Materials: Study of how materials deform and fail under various types of loading.

• Friction: Analysis of the interaction between surfaces in contact, including the role of friction in engineering systems.

Learning Outcomes:

• Develop the ability to analyze forces and motion in engineering systems.

• Gain proficiency in applying engineering mechanics principles to real-world problems.

• Master problem-solving techniques using vector analysis and free-body diagrams.
